After the Samsung Galaxy Note paved the way for the entry of the phablet category in the smartphone competition, it is now up to its successor, the Samsung Galaxy Note II to continue the domination of the Korean electronics giant in the said category. Looking back, the Samsung Galaxy Note was a big hit during its heydays but was met initially by naysayers who claimed that the first generation Samsung phablet will not make it big in the smartphone competition. The Samsung Galaxy Note II however does not have to contend with this because even before it hit the shelves, we already know how capable and impressive the second generation Samsung phablet is.
The Samsung Galaxy Note II for Verizon is on sale now starting at $279.99.
In fact, the Samsung Galaxy Note II can be considered as one of the more bankable handsets of the Korean smartphone and tablet manufacturer because its sales figures are already off the charts in just a couple of months since it hit the shelves in September. As of the moment, the sales figures of the Samsung Galaxy Note II have already reached the 5 million mark making it a potent one-two combination for Samsung together with the Samsung Galaxy S III.
In US shores, the Samsung Galaxy Note II was released by all the major carriers in our side of the world but Verizon is yet to launch its variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note II. Big Red has been offering the second generation Samsung phablet for over a month now and we are pretty sure that Verizon customers are already antsy in waiting for the handset to finally make its debut in the shelves of Big Red.
Thankfully, the wait for the phablet is about to come to an end because Verizon has already announced that the Samsung Galaxy Note II will finally hit the shelves of the carrier. The second generation Samsung phablet will be available online and in brick and mortar retail locations of the carrier on November 29 and will set you back $299.99. Should you be interested in making the handset your next mobile weapon of choice, you will be required to sign a new two-year service agreement with Big Red if you want to take advantage of the handset at its carrier-subsidized price point.
As for the components under the hood of the Samsung Galaxy Note II, the phablet has its circuitry built around its Exynos 4412 Quad processor. This SoC brings to the table a quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor clocked at 1.6 GHz and this in turn works in conjunction with a whopping 2GB of RAM to ensure the flawless performance of the handset. The phablet is available in a 16GB and a 32GB version but a user still has the option of expanding its storage by using the microSD ccrd slot of the handset. As for its display, the Samsung Galaxy Note II packs a 5.5-inch SuperAMOLED HD panel with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels while its camera department boasts of a rear 8MP shooter and a front 1.9MP snapper.
